Description Konstantin Münning 2015-05-05 22:44:57 UTC
When opening the e-mail account dialog in www-client/seamonkey-2.33[.1] all accounts including the local folders are listed as "Invalid account <Name of account>". No settings are shown, no changes are possible.

After searching a bit on the net there I found that this seems to be caused by enigmail-1.7.2 which is installed together with seamonkey-2.32 and seamonkey-2.33* but seems to affect only the latter. This also seems to prevent saving mails into draft folder (see http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=2910779) but I haven't verified myself. Disabling enigmail extension makes the account dialog work as expected so I would say the culprit is confirmed.

The current latest version is 1.8.2. Changing EMVER="1.8.2" in line 35 of the ebuild may be the simple solution. I am currently trying if this will fix the problem and will report here.

Here the bug reports for enigmail:

Reproducible: Always

With enigmail-1.8.2 the bug seems to be fixed.
